Sure, I can check your answers and explain the correct answers for the ones you missed. Let's go through each question one by one:
1. Lincoln narrowly defeated Douglas in 1860 as a result of his success in the presidential debates. - True (Correct)
2. All of the following were issues in the War of 1812 except: A. impressment B. Indians C. Canada D. slavery. - False (Incorrect)
Explanation: The correct answer is D. Slavery. While impressment, conflicts with Native American tribes, and Canada were all issues in the War of 1812, slavery was not directly related to the war.
3. All of the following are associated with the compromise of 1877 except: A. Andrew Johnson B. Rutherford Hayes C. federal troops D. a contested election. - False (Incorrect)
Explanation: The correct answer is C. Federal troops. The Compromise of 1877 was a political agreement that resolved the disputed presidential election of 1876 between Samuel Tilden and Rutherford Hayes. The compromise did not directly involve federal troops.

5. The Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves: A. only in the rebellious states B. only in the border states C. in all states D. only in Northern States. - False (Incorrect)

7. Among the few pro-American voices in Britain in the 1770s were: A. North and Townshend B. North and Chatham C. Amherst and Burke D. Fox and Burke. - False (Incorrect)

8. Jefferson freed all of his slaves during his own lifetime. - True (Correct)
9. The Newburgh conspiracy flared up soon after the Constitution was adopted. - False (Correct)

10. Jefferson had some misgivings about purchasing New Orleans and the Louisiana Territory because he had a strict constructionist view of the Constitution. - True (Correct)
